Trouble on Zoneminder configuration...

carlesso · Post by **carlesso** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 10:17 am

Hi all, I'm having some trouble running zoneminder 1.22.3 on a slackware 11.

I'm running it with two ip cameras and I'm not able to get it working. The cameras are two axis. I cannot have it working nor using remote access nor using a file in which (with an infinite loop) i store the image by hand...
I cannot get the device turn into green, always have it red.
Here my logs:
A little extract of my zmdc.log

Of couse, my web interface tell me that the program is stopped... The right way for starting is? I've tried zmpkg.pl start, also adjusting zm.in provided by the tarball, and via web...

I really do not know what to do.

MJN · Post by **MJN** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 3:25 pm

Click on Stopped and you'll get a popup where you can start it up.

The shared memory problems can often persist if you don't stop/start ZM - that could be why that particular error hung around. Have no idea about the SQL problem though.

carlesso · Post by **carlesso** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 3:42 pm

I saw it, but starting from web interface does not seems to do nothing... I remains in stopped mode...
I'm not longer getting memory problems...

MJN · Post by **MJN** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 3:58 pm

You really ought to be quoting logs all from the same time period - mixing and matching from different times (and days!) is only going to cause confusion.

What is the current situation? What is/isn't working? And what are your logs currently saying?

Try disabling ZM_OPT_FRAME_SERVER in Options > System (something JamesWilson suggested to another user so credit to him if it works!).

Remember to keep restarting the server when making changes - whilst not necessary for all cases I find it's a safe measure just in case.

Here I'm! Again

So, now zoneminder seems to work fully, he's able to record images and work with any kind of source. The problem is that it's not possible to see any image from the web interface, just an empty box...
